He had to slog through my case!

In 2021, I fell and tore up my shoulder at work. This was due to some mats that the employees had warned the administration about. I’m a nurse. When they finally ok’d my visit to a surgeon, I actually picked one that was one of the owners of my surgical facility. I picked him because of his skill and... expertise. The interesting thing is that he was the one who urged me to get a workman’s comp lawyer. So I googled WC lawyers and found Steve. I liked his personality over the phone; he had good reviews so I hired him. This was the beginning of a 3+ year struggle to get compensation from my employer. I had surgery; physical therapy and was actually able to return to work after a very long rehab. To say that the insurance company dragged their feet is a GROSS understatement. But all through this 3 year struggle, Steve kept me informed and updated even when there was no news. This whole thing is very complicated and I’m so glad I listened to my surgeon. What the insurance company and Human Resources try to do is beat you down at every step, and without an attorney running interference, they will have you questioning your own sanity. I believe they drag it out in the hopes the injured party will just give up. Fortunately, I had an attorney with a good sense of humor that kept me from being discouraged; explained everything and didn’t let me give up. I don’t know how he managed to deal with so many idiots—-I sure wouldn’t be able to without screaming like a fishwife over the phone. I’m glad it’s over but I have learned a lot. And now, when someone has an accident at their job, I’m the one saying, ‘Get a lawyer. I’ve got a name.’ BTW, I never saw him in the flesh until we met so I could pick up the checks. He’s extremely tall.

Barbara, it was my pleasure to work with you and for you on this long journey to compensation for your injury. I appreciate your patience, as well as your kind words. The fact that you said publicly I am “extremely tall” must now make it true. Thank you again for your review! Stephen

Great injury attorney

I had great experience with Stephen. Very professional and prompt. I was hit by a drunk driver and I learned so much from this car accident and from Stephan. I was absolutely clueless about car insurance and Stephen took the time to explain everything to me. Exceed expectation.

Outstanding Lawyer

Stephen Hoffman is an awesome lawyer. A master negotiator. Sincere in his concern about his client's well being. Always accessible. Consistently keeps his client abreast on his progress. We were lucky to find him. No one was interested in our case. One lawyer bluntly told us we didn't have a case... at all. Others were more polite and said it was not the kind of case that interested them. In our moment of being totally discouraged, someone suggested we call Stephen Hoffman. We made that call, and he began to work on our behalf immediately. We are so pleased and grateful. He is a rare and exceptional person who brings those qualities into his practice. He worked his magic of negotiating skills against settlement offers that were embarrassingly low. He was patient and persistent in pursuing what ultimately resulted in great settlements for us. We are so grateful and pleased that he took us as clients. If you need a great lawyer to help ease your anxiety and maneuver you through a difficult auto injury, call Stephen Hoffman.

The beat decision I made

I had my first car accident this year and I didn’t have a clue to what I should do. It’s a good thing that my friend recommended Stephen to me as he helped me all the way since day 1. He is always available to answer any question and would guide you properly on the whole entire process. Thanks to him... handling my case everything turned out well.

Best Attorney you could ask for!

I've used Stephen on two separate occasions, and each time was just an absolute pleasure! He makes sure to keep you abreast on any new developments to your case. He really makes the entire process, which would normally be a headache and stressful, surprisingly pleasant! If you need an amazing persona...l injury or motor vehicle attorney, you can't get anyone better thank Stephen Hoffman!
